“Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.”
~Colossians 3:12-14

Lord, our prayer, is that one day each one of these special youth will know You and accept You as the one and only truly God. Lord, please draw each one of them close to You and give them courage to follow You no matter what their circumstances may be. Lord, we pray that you will use their lives to reach others so that all may have eternal life.~Amen

| THE SKY POINTS TO GOD’S GLORY
“The heavens declare the glory of God,
and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.
Day to day pours out speech,
and night to night reveals knowledge.
There is no speech, nor are there words,
whose voice is not heard.
Their voice goes out through all the earth,
and their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun”
~Psalm 19:1-4

I love all the pictures and updates. It's evident that God is doing a mighty work in the lives of the people in Peru and in your family's lives as well. Stay away from those scorpions and we'll see you soon in NC! Praying God gives you focus and love for these last few weeks overseas. 🙂
